SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 788,761, dated May 2, 1905.
Application lled August 1,1904. Serial llo. 219,140. l
To all whom t may concern:
Be it known that I, JOHN Enwoon, a citizen of the United States, residing at Chicago, in the county of Cook and State of Illinois, have .invented new and vuseful AImprovements in WerehouseDoors, of which the following is a specification. reference being had to the aceompenyingd rawings, forminga part thereof.
This invention relates to warehouse-doors, and is designed as an improvement or modification of the warehouse-door shown in my application, Serial No. 149,959, filed March 28, 1903. now pending and allowed in the Patent Ofce. p
It consists of the features of construction set out in the claims.
In the drawings, Figure 1 is a perspective view of my improved door shown at open position; Fig. 2 is a section'at a vertical piane transverse to the wall on which the door is hung,rshowing the door in edge elevation at nearly closed position. Fig. 3 is a plan view, on an enlarged scale,a portion of the door being broken away at. the middle.A Fig. 4 is adetail section of the guiding devices at the foot of the lower section of the door, section being made at the plane of the line 4 4 on Fig. 2.
Fig. 5'is a detail section at the line 5 5 on Fig. 4. Fig. 6 is a detail side elevation of the fitting and guiding devices at the foot of the lower section of the door, showing the door in elevated position. Fig. 7 is a detail section at the line 7 7 un Fig. 2. v
This door is rnaatde in two sections, an opper and a lower, hingedtogethex: at a longitudinal horizontal line, the lower section being preferably longer than the upper section by about the thickness of the door. The upper section is hinged to the horizontal bar 3, which is guided on vertical rods 4, 4, rigidly vmounted upon l the wall in which is the doorway, which the door closes. Upon the upper side of said horizontalbar 3, ap' roxxnately in line-With each lateral edge oftb a pulley 8, and to the ceiling or overhead aupport there are secured in line directly above said pulleys -8 8, respectively alleys 9 Y 9. Adjacent to the pulley 9 at the le hand side,
andpreferably, for convenience, journsled inv the bracket, is a guide-pulley 9', and in e door, there is mounted suitable position-with vrespect to the pulley 9 at the right hand there is mounted a. doublegroove guide-pulley 10. At the opposite lateral edges of the lower section of the door, at the foot, there is mounted a tracking pulley or wheel 11, for which a guideftrack '12 isxprovided on the wall parallel with the vertical edge of the doorway. The pulleys 11 are preferably mounted in fittings 13, secured to the lower. corners of the door. :Each of the lifting- cables 15 and 16 lis connected at the lower ends to a link 14, which is pivoted to' the corner-fitting ,13 about midway in the thickness of the door and about as far from the lower edge ashall said thickness, and the link i4 has a lug 14 projecting into a short of the guide-rail 12, so that as the door approaches the floor it is engaged positively `with the'wall by thelengagement of the lug lug I4* in the channel of thebar 12. The
